AWS Private CA expands AWS PrivateLink support to FIPS endpoints

By

AWS Private Certificate Authority (AWS Private CA) now supports AWS PrivateLink with all AWS Private CA Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) endpoints that are available in commercial AWS Regions and the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions. With this launch, you can establish a private connection between your virtual private cloud (VPC) and AWS Private CA FIPS endpoints instead of connecting over the public internet, helping you meet your organization’s business, compliance, and regulatory requirements to limit public internet connectivity.

AWS Private CA offers FIPS endpoints in the following AWS Regions: US East (N. Virginia), US East (Ohio), US West (N. California), US West (Oregon), Canada (Central), Canada West (Calgary), AWS GovCloud (US-East), and AWS GovCloud (US-West).

Amazon VPC Reachability Analyzer and Amazon VPC Network Access Analyzer are now available in five additional AWS Regions

By

With this launch, Amazon VPC Reachability Analyzer and Amazon VPC Network Access Analyzer are now available in Asia Pacific (Jakarta), Asia Pacific (Malaysia), Asia Pacific (Thailand), Europe (Zurich), and Middle East (UAE).

VPC Reachability Analyzer allows you to diagnose network reachability between a source resource and a destination resource in your virtual private clouds (VPCs) by analyzing your network configurations. For example, Reachability Analyzer can help you identify a missing route table entry in your VPC route table that could be blocking network reachability between an EC2 instance in Account A that is not able to connect to another EC2 instance in Account B in your AWS Organization.

VPC Network Access Analyzer allows you to identify unintended network access to your AWS resources, helping you meet your security and compliance guidelines. For example, you can create a scope to verify that all paths from your web-applications to the internet, traverse the firewall, and detect any paths that bypass the firewall.

AWS Console Mobile App now offers access to AWS Support

By

AWS customers can now view and manage their support cases from the AWS Console Mobile App. Customers can view and reply to case correspondence, and resolve, reopen, or create support cases while on the go and away from their workstations. Visit the Services tab and select “Support” to get started.

The AWS Console Mobile App enables AWS customers monitor and manage a select set of resources and receive push notifications to stay informed and connected with their AWS resources while on-the-go. The sign-in process supports biometrics authentication, making access to AWS resources simple, secure, and quick. For AWS services not available natively, customers can access the AWS Management Console via an in-app browser to access service pages without additional authentication, manual navigation, or need to switch from the app to a browser.

Visit the AWS Console Mobile App product page  for more information about the AWS Console Mobile App, including a full list of supported services and regions. Visit the AWS Support documentation page for more information about AWS Support.

Amazon EC2 M7i and M7i-flex instances are now available in Asia Pacific (Osaka) Region

By

Starting today, Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) M7i and M7i-flex instances powered by custom 4th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors (code-named Sapphire Rapids) are available in Asia Pacific (Osaka) region. These custom processors, available only on AWS, offer up to 15% better performance over comparable x86-based Intel processors utilized by other cloud providers.

M7i-flex instances are the easiest way for you to get price-performance benefits for a majority of general-purpose workloads. They deliver up to 19% better price-performance compared to M6i. M7i-flex instances offer the most common sizes, from large to 16xlarge, and are a great first choice for applications that don’t fully utilize all compute resources such as web and application servers, virtual-desktops, batch-processing, and microservices.

M7i deliver up to 15% better price-performance compared to M6i. M7i instances are a great choice for workloads that need the largest instance sizes or continuous high CPU usage, such as gaming servers, CPU-based machine learning (ML), and video-streaming. M7i offer larger instance sizes, up to 48xlarge, and two bare metal sizes (metal-24xl, metal-48xl). These bare-metal sizes support built-in Intel accelerators: Data Streaming Accelerator, In-Memory Analytics Accelerator, and QuickAssist Technology that are used to facilitate efficient offload and acceleration of data operations and optimize performance for workloads.
